A True Inheritance

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Assalaamu alaykum

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

Everything is vanishing and going back to Allah. Nothing here is for us except temporarily.

Allah Most High says:

وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ نُحْىِۦ وَنُمِيتُ وَنَحْنُ ٱلْوَٰرِثُونَ

And verily, it is We Who give life, and Who give death: it is We Who remain inheritors (after all else passes away). Qur'an Hijr 15:23

So how could we be content with something that is not really ours? We should only find our contentment in Allah.

A true inheritance is what the Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him peace, has left behind which the soul of it all is the knowledge of the Creator. This is essence of Islam. The one who inherits the Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him peace, in words, in states and in character, he is the total and perfect inheritor.

We turn to Allah to make us inheritors of the Prophets and the elect and make us an inheritor of the Paradise of knowledge and pleasures.

رَبِّ هَبْ لِى حُكْمًۭا وَأَلْحِقْنِى بِٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ وَٱجْعَل لِّى لِسَانَ صِدْقٍۢ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ

وَٱجْعَلْنِى مِن وَرَثَةِ جَنَّةِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ

"O my Lord! bestow wisdom on me, and join me with the righteous; Grant me honorable mention on the tongue of truth among the latest (generations); And make me one of the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss." Qur'an Shu'araa 26:83-85

Ameen

Please don't forget us in your night prayer. JazakAllahu khairan.

And Allah knows best.
Wassalaam
